Last week we showed by a comparative analysis of the scores of Cornell and Harvard in cross-country meets the great disadvantage under which a team labors that has been poorly coached or not coached at all when it meets a team coached by an expert like Moakley of Cornell. Except in 1908 when Alfred Schrubb coached, the Harvard team has not had the services of a first-class trainer. Schrubb accomplished wonders in a few weeks with the runners, but his stay was too brief for his work to be of more than temporary effect...
...greatly increased opportunity of practice will be of inestimable value in the work just before the championship games the latter part of February. Except for a short trip to New York during the Christmas vacation, the team has been forced to depend entirely for its practice on weather conditions and poor ice was a great hindrance in perfecting team-play for the last few years. This year, however, with the completion of the Boston Arena by the middle of January, an excellent opportunity will be afforded of practicing on an indoor rink. Following the plan of last year, arc-lights...

In drafting its rules the Committee has to consider not only the big institutions where football is played under the most favorable conditions and where every safeguard...
...Appleton Chapel on Monday morning, the Rev. Francis J. McConnell, D.D., LL.D., president of De Pauw University, Greencastle, Indiana, will select his subject with special reference to the occasion. Last year this service was omitted, but the three hundredth anniversary in 1907 was made the occasion of a great undergraduate celebration. It is expected that henceforth the birthday will be marked by a brief address similar to the one to be given in Appleton Chapel on Monday...
